The Kai Cookbook Club

We love all the things our customers love, and Jess thought that she could bring two of those passions together to entertain and teach those interested in food. There are book clubs, and supper clubs the world over – but no cookbook clubs. As always, at Kai we like to keep ahead, so from February 15 we will launch our cookbook club.

The club is about people learning, talking, and sharing their passion with others. “It will be great for people to share their love of cooking and cookbooks with like minded people. The club will be a place for individuals and groups of people to come and talk about food, ask questions, and find out how to be a better home chef” says Jess.

The cookbook club at Kai will feature in the restaurant on the 3rd Wednesday of every month. Tickets are available in advance from the restaurant at €35 for three courses including one glass of wine.

The first installment of the cookbook club will look at Fergus Hendersons ‘Nose to Tail’, and feature our producer of the month – Castlemine Farm – a perfect winter pairing.

Each evening Jess will dedicate the menu to a pre-decided book chosen by those attending via the restaurants Facebook page. From January we will run a poll on the Facebook page so you can decide what book you would like covered, and if there are any specific dishes just let us know

Each course will be served with Jessica explaining the technicalities of the dish, best places to source the freshest food, and how to serve a feast to happy customers.
